For someone who claims to not care for birds, I spy quite a few in my home. If you've been following my blog you've already seen the mercury glass bird in a cloche on my porch.

Recently I purchased collage art with an ostrich.
I have the art leaning against the wall while I decide if it stays in the foyer or if there's a better spot for me to put yet another nail hole into a wall.

In the dining room I have a vintage hand-colored bird engraving layered over the window.

In the upstairs hallway is a vintage Audubon print.

There are a pair of bookcases in my family room. I call them my nature-inspired shelves. You'll see framed vintage bird engravings, eggs, nests, and even some transferware plates with birds in flight.

Many years ago I purchased a calendar with Audubon prints. I had my two favorite ones matted and framed. They've been all around the house. This week they're in the kitchen.

There's even a bird in the oversized art on the stair landing.

Last but not least, since it is Fall and I haven't done any Fall decorating, I thought I'd share a mantel I pulled together years ago when I was ambitious and changed my mantel seasonally. You can see a brass pheasant peeking out on the right.
